“Car Men” the movie

The film “Car Men” is scheduled to make its online premiere following the success of its limited-run U.S. theatrical premiere in November.

At a recent press conference, Frank Myers Auto Maxx announced that Celebrity Films will host the free online world premiere of the film “Car Men”. The documentary, which features two North Carolina car dealers, details the touching and occasionally hilarious story of how the Myers men created a car business that’s known all across America for its successful out-of-the-box thinking – not to mention its off-kilter TV commercials, featuring characters such as Uncle Frank and Chainsaw Charlie.

“Car Men” reveals an in-depth look at the Myers men, Frank and Tracy. While Tracy Myers may play outrageous on television to sell cars – this best-selling author, nationally-recognized entrepreneur, and devoted family man is dead serious when it comes to building a business he, his family and his city can be proud of.

“In the car business, Tracy Myers is who everybody wants to be” said auto industry pro Bruce Roffey. “When you watch Car Men, you’ll find out why.”

“The feedback we’ve received for this film has been overwhelmingly positive and I’m honored that Celebrity Films has decided to share it with everyone online,” said Tracy Myers, one of the stars of the film.

The film will have its limited engagement online world premiere beginning Friday March 2, 2012 at 6am and ending Sunday March 4, 2012 at midnight. During the free weekend preview, anyone can watch the film by clicking this link: http://www.thecarmenmovie.com/movie-premier/

As Frank Myers says in the film, his style of car selling may not be to everyone’s taste, but many people think that our American cousins can teach us Brits a thing or two about car retailing and there’s no doubt the business is successful depite the tough economic circumstances. Should make interesting viwing.

      Ok, so i just waited for this film to download and then sat back and well……just watched…….

      For a start Tracey Myers really is one of the nicest used car dealers Ive never met, he comes over as genuinely interested in his customers, loves the business, his family, and cares for his workforce, in turn his customers become friends, his workforce like him, and many in the industry look up to and admire his business skills, which are many as the film makes clear, however………….this could never be so in the UK, when was the last time you heard a used dealer call his customers friends, and mean it ! as Tracey says “These are all people we see in the malls and at church every week, they are not just customers, they are our friends in the community” when was the last time a used car dealer in the UK even stepped in a church full of his customers? and as for all those smiling happy customers milling about his car lot having fun???? eh? I just watched a whole group of people walk onto my site here in the UK and i can tell you now, none of them were smiling ! loud music, colour, funny TV ads ( just a dream here ) and customers for life !!!!! Please Tracey, Please, tell us how to do that here? you can’t?…….I know, I know, the two cultures are just about as different as a mini is here to a Ford Mustang over there, a real shame, because i and many others in this business would love to feel the way you do about your’s……great film though if you’re selling in America, for us i guess, we will never be “The land of the Brave”…………..
